Title: Stolen bike- mine!
---------------------------------------------------
Keep an eye open for ths bike. It's mine!
Nice guy that I am, I let Patrick, our Redwood City service manager, borrow my prior ride... a 2007 Trek Madone 5.9 SSL with a very distinctive "Fighter Ace" paint job. A nice, faster alternative to the 'cross bike he'd been using to do long rides on.
Unfortunately, this past Monday (August 27th, 2012) he went into a 7-11 in Palo Alto for "just a second" to get something, and poof, the bike was gone when he came back out. What we're looking for is a 60cm bike that looks pretty much exactly like the photo here, with "ChainReaction.com" on one side of the top tube (close to the seat tube), and may or may not still have 10-speed DuraAce shifters, derailleurs & brakes. Cranks may or may not still be Bontrager carbon. Just like in the photo. Wheels I'm not sure of; Patrick had put on his own. Serial# WL3327306.
Reward? I'm sure Patrick will put up a case (or two) of beer, since this bike's worth about $2k on the frame and maybe another $500 for the used DuraAce components. And I'll offer 10% off any new bike for its return, and $500 if its return results in the conviction of a real live bike thief! --Mike--
